Active Earth Pressure Against Rigid Retaining Wall Considering Effects of Wall-soil Friction and Inclinations
Abstract This paper reports a new method for calculating the active earth pressure acting on inclined rigid retaining wall with inclined backfill, considering wall-soil interface friction angle. Based on Mohr-Coulomb strength theory and Mohr stress circle, new formulae of the active earth pressure and the active rupture angle are derived. The effects of internal friction angle, backfill-surface inclination, wall-back inclination on the active earth pressure and the active rupture angle are investigated. In order to facilitate calculation, special solutions of presented formulae are discussed under various particular conditions. Finally, the calculated results from the presented formula and existing formulae are compared with existing small-scale test results. The comparison shows that the presented method satisfactorily predicts active earth pressure.
